This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial products or commercial services prepared in accordance with part RFO FAR part 12.202.

This announcement constitutes the solicitation only.

Quotes are being requested and a separate written solicitation will not be issued.

The Mission Installation Contracting Command (MICC) Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM), Washington currently intends to award a contract for Education and Vocational Training for prisoners confined at the Northwestern Joint Regional Correctional Facility (NWJRCF).

The NWJRCF prison inmate population is located at 20000 Alder Rd, Joint Base Lewis-McChord, WA 98433.

The contractor shall provide instructors and state approved curriculum for a Vocational Training Program to provide prisoners with the knowledge and skills for future employment, preparation for certification, degrees, and licensure.

The NWJRCF is a medium security correctional facility which houses military prisoners with sentences up to 10 years.

The mission of the NWJRCF is to provide custody/control, education, and vocational opportunities as well as behavioral/mental health programs to prisoners to assist their transition back into the civilian community or return to duty.

The NWJRCF houses prisoners in the military correctional system.

Prisoners who demonstrate good behavior, desire to learn, who qualify after screening, and with enough time remaining in their sentences may be enrolled in vocational education programs.

The prisoners work toward good conduct time and are kept gainfully employed by learning new skills that in turn prepare them for work upon release.

All duties shall be performed in accordance with standards and methods generally accepted within industry and in compliance with all Federal and State policies and regulations.

How to bid on this

This is a contract solicitation, not a grant. To bid, you submit a proposal (usually a price and a description of how you would do the work) directly to the government, through the channel the official listing specifies, not through Oppward.

Make sure your business has an active SAM.gov registration. You cannot be paid on a federal contract without one.
Read the full solicitation on the official listing above, especially the scope of work, not just this summary. Our guide to reading a solicitation walks through what to look for.
This listing has no set-aside restriction ("full and open competition"), meaning any business, large or small, can bid.
Submit your proposal by the deadline, using the exact submission method the official listing states. A technically on-time bid sent the wrong way is often treated as late.
